I'm impressed with how fast the releases are going on this one. Actually, I'm pretty backlogged on watching them as a result. I can't watch them alone, so I have to wait until my bro and SIL are around to watch them. We just started the Forbidden Games storyline last night, and it looks good.

Whoo-hoo! You don't know how much I wanted to see 19 subbed before I watched 20 raw. I was being a good girl and not bugging you about it (cuz I know that's really rude) but I oh, so much very wanted it to happen. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Great job as always with the release! Something caught my attention in the dialogue, and I was hoping you could answer a question it raised. During the Mai and Lin's conversation, Mai says not to hate her because she's Japanese as opposed to Del Rey's version where she says don't hate because she's female or an orphan or Japanese. I was wondering if you remembered what Mai said in the original manga. Was it the shorter anime version or more like Del Rey's longer version?

The manga is supposed to be still ongoing, but it's been quite slow lately. The latest volume (vol 9 tankou / vol 5 bunko reprint) runs to the end of the second last story in the Teens Heart novels, so the final revelations etc. haven't been revealed in the manga yet. ^^;
